Patients with one or more successive missing teeth can choose between two replacement possibilities other than dental implants. A \u201cbridge\u201d is a permanent dental appliance that consists of a pontic (false tooth) and two crowns that are cemented into place on the abutment teeth (on either side of the space). Unlike removable partial dentures, fixed bridges cannot be taken out of the mouth. Removable partial dentures usually consist of replacement teeth attached to pink or gum-colored plastic bases, which are connected by a metal framework. Removable partial dentures attach to the patient\u2019s natural teeth with metal clasps or devices called \u201cprecision attachments.\u201d Precision attachments are generally more aesthetic than metal clasps and are nearly invisible.<\/p>\n

Tooth loss is often an outcome of injures, dental diseases and old age. There are number of reasons why you may consider replacing your missing teeth. Physical appearance is the most important reason why people may choose to get false teeth alternatives.

P.S. A precision attachment consists of precision-machined, interlocking \u201cmale\u201d and \u201cfemale\u201d components that connect a removable partial denture to fixed bridgework.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
